Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, my question is to the Premier regarding the amalgamation of Public Works and Services, Transportation and the Housing Corporation. Mr. Speaker, the Premier, yesterday in the House, stated that the amalgamation of those three departments would be completed in April 1999. In a letter, which was tabled as document 13-13(4), tabled on the 29th day of November, 1996 from the Premier regarding the subject of amalgamation he stated and confirmed a motion that was passed in this House and the end of the motion states further that the executive council not proceed with the amalgamation until a sessional discussion paper on the proposed amalgamation is tabled and approved in the Legislative Assembly. I also look at documents that are attached to that tabled document and it talks about a time table. I just want a confirmation from the Premier that in fact no continuation of amalgamation will proceed until the committees have the opportunity to review this document, report back to and approve it in the House. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
